My Favorite Yoga Props

Blocks

If you choose only one prop for your general yoga practice make it a couple of yoga blocks. These are invaluable for helping to shape the pose to your body.

  • Cork - great for general practice

  • Foam - great for restorative yoga

Blankets

In my opinion one can never have too many blankets especially if you love restorative yoga. Ideally the blankets you practice with are all of similar weight and style.

Bolsters

Bolsters are worth the investment! Although you can fashion a bolster yourself out of a bed pillow and a bath towel in a pinch. I recommend investing in the rectangular restorative bolster first.

Strap

It’s easy to create a strap out of a long scarf or a belt but a nice long strap with a d-ring buckle is a nice addition to your prop collection.
